    I found a great deal on aluminum cased 45 acp ammo and I bought a couple boxes. Has anyone used any in their Mil Spec? Any issues?
    If there are no issues I may go back and buy more. I won't get to the range for a week or so.

    No problems with the Al cases, but they can't be reloaded, so in the LONG run they cost you more, unless you are sure you are never going to reload. But consider that it costs 10 cents to reload 45acp if you have old brass. Less if you cast. 45acp costs me less than 22 right now.
